The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 2 - S1-E2
Other mistake: The newspaper article that features Tintin and Captain Haddock at the end of the episode is a flipped shot, as shown by the text that has been reversed. (00:43:35)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Tintin is locked in a room tied up to two pipes. There is rope around his torso and ankles which is connected to the pipes above and even his arms are tied up, connected to the pipes behind him. Allan then enters the room and the rope that was connecting his arms to the pipe is now nowhere in sight. It is partially visible for a few frames, but then vanishes for the rest of the shot. Then when the shot cuts to Tintin, there is suddenly rope wrapped all around the pipe behind him. (00:12:35)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When the three bad guys make for the car after taking Mr. Kuraki with them, two of them are headed for the right hand side and the bad guy with the purple jumper runs to the left side. In the next shot the bad guy with the purple jumper is now on the right hand side of the car, pulling the door shut. (00:06:45)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Revealing mistake: After Snowy tackles the man, the man throws him onto the ground and then says "I'll tend to you later, mutt", then turns his head to Tintin and says "But first I'm gonna take care of you." Just as the shot ends, Tintin's mouth vanishes from shot for a brief frame. (00:06:15)
King Ottokar's Sceptre: Part 2 - S2-E5
Continuity mistake: The piece of wood the detectives throw at the window has a straight Y shape. In shots of the wood on the ground, the Y is much more outstretched compared to other shots. (00:34:50)
King Ottokar's Sceptre: Part 2 - S2-E5
Continuity mistake: When Tintin is in the car with the singer, there is a man next to her. He's wearing a red jumper, but it disappears about 30 seconds later. (00:25:30 - 00:26:05)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Other mistake: Whilst examining the wrapper with "Karaboudjan" written on it, the "K" is a centimeter away from the letter "A" and all the other letters are about a fifth of a centimeter away from the letters. Tintin then places a magnifying glass above the word "Karaboudjan." After doing this, the "K" that was a centimeter away from the "A" is now a fifth of a centimeter away from the "A", but none of the other letters seem to have changed distances. This all occurs within the same shot. (00:05:15)
The Blue Lotus: Part 1 - S1-E8
Continuity mistake: The background behind the Maharajah and Tintin changes between shots as they watch his son and Snowy. (00:01:40)

Continuity mistake: At the beginning when Daws is writing on the back of a wrapper, the back of the wrapper is white. However, when Tintin finds the wrapper later, the back of the wrapper is yellow. (00:01:55 - 00:03:40)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 1 - S1-E1
Other mistake: During the first shot of Captain Haddock, there is a shot of his table with cards. You can see there are three of the same card (a red ace) on the table. Even if it's one heart and one diamond there's still an extra. (00:15:25)
Destination Moon: Part 2 - S3-E10
Continuity mistake: Right before the launch, Haddock is wearing blue coveralls, but after the towers are cleared, they are green for one shot, only to be blue again for the rest of the episode.
Continuity mistake: When Tintin follows the mob member from the diner to the building, the scene cuts to an exterior shot. A hot dog stand is shown outside the building, with a vendor standing beside it, but in the next shot, the vendor is suddenly standing behind it. (00:16:40)
Continuity mistake: As Tintin and Snowy are walking out of the train station, there are two taxis parked outside. When Tintin is offered a ride, there is only one taxi, and the other taxi has been replaced by a purple car. (00:02:25)
Explorers on the Moon: Part 2 - S3-E12
Continuity mistake: When driving to the landing pad, the number plate is shown to have fairly thin style numbering, but later in the scene, when the car is shown through the view of the binoculars, the numbering on the plate is much thicker. (00:41:05)
Explorers on the Moon: Part 2 - S3-E12
Continuity mistake: In the tank, Haddock removes his helmet and he starts banging his head due to the bumpy moon surface. The shot cuts to an angle of the tank driving and the helmet has suddenly reappeared on his head. (00:26:50)
Explorers on the Moon: Part 1 - S3-E11
Continuity mistake: When the crates are being lowered onto the moon, the antenna on Tintin's space suit is missing. (00:20:35)
Explorers on the Moon: Part 1 - S3-E11
Other mistake: Wolff is explaining that if the motor is shut off again, the magnetic sole boots they are wearing will stop them from floating. Whilst he is explaining this, he is placing the boot straps over the Velcro. The first strap he places is only partially on, but a few frames after, a blip occurs in the animation, and the strap is suddenly entirely over the Velcro. The same happens with the second strap as well. (00:08:00)
Destination Moon: Part 2 - S3-E10
Continuity mistake: When Calculus is showing Tintin and Haddock the airlocks in the rocket, there are three levers shown, two of which are level with each other. Once Calculus has been told to return to the centre, the two levers that were level with each are now in two different positions. (00:32:15)
Destination Moon: Part 2 - S3-E10
Continuity mistake: Calculus is showing Tintin and Haddock the living quarters of the rocket. Haddock has a red button on the back of his space suit, which becomes a grey button once he is climbing down to the next deck below. (00:31:50)
Destination Moon: Part 2 - S3-E10
Continuity mistake: When Calculus is driving himself, Tintin and Haddock out of the base, Calculus drives down a hill and back onto the main road. Haddock is still sitting in his seat, but in the next shot, he is suddenly standing up. (00:30:15)
Chosen answer: If Hector was seriously intent on removing King Ottokar's scepter from the glass cage holding it and launching it through the window with the camera, then Hector would have been forced to knock out the two guards so they would not have interfered with Hector's plan as soon as he removed the scepter from the glass. As for Hector, himself, was explained when Tintin was explaining how Hector stole the scepter. Tintin placed a twig inside the camera and it launched out of the camera. Hector would have placed the scepter inside of the camera, and would have been knocked unconscious due to the spring effect created when the scepter had been launched.
